The tears never came..

They just stayed in our eyes, we refused to admit that we wore this disquise… - Elton John - The Emperor’s New Clothes.OK, I have to admit the new album, Songs from the West Coast, has grown on me - in fact I really, really like it. I’m thinking about this because I’m watching Elton on A&E tonight.I’m missing my Jeep, but only slightly, every so often on beautiful sunny days, when I see other Jeepers driving with their tops down, I do get a little green with envy, but then I quietly meditate on where I am, I turn on the a/c, carefully adjust the volume of the stereo from the steering wheel controls, caress the steptronic shifter, and gently press the accelerator pedal and listen to the purr of the German engine, and the envy disappears gently into the leather seats of the BMW.Have a great weekend!
